Two "civilians" were killed in northern Israel on Sunday after an anti-tank missile fired from Lebanon hit their home in a town near the border, Israeli rescuers said.

The missile hit a home in the town of Yuval in northern Israel, killing a man in his 40s and his mother, who was in her 70s, the rescuers said. Although Yuval is one of more than 40 towns along the northern border evacuated by the government in October, Israeli media reported that the family stayed in the area because they work in agriculture. Hezbollah meanwhile said that the attack targeted an Israeli military force and inflicted deaths and injuries.

More than 115,000 Israelis have evacuated from northern Israel due to the ongoing tensions. In Israel, 12 soldiers and seven civilians have died from rocket launches from Lebanon, and more than 170 were injured, the Associated Press has reported. Hezbollah has reported at least 150 fighters and 20 civilians have been killed in the near-daily exchanges of fire. Tens of thousands of Lebanese have also been displaced on the Lebanese side of the border.

Since October, over 2,000 rockets and 350 drones have been launched from Lebanon, according to Israel.

Israeli "civilians" are not allowed to stay near the border by the Israeli authorities. They were evacuated and it was not their decision. Anyone staying behind is connected with the military, full stop.

The man was part of the child killing terrorist israeli army as a reservist. He was not a civilian. He was an indian jew living on stolen land. Yuval settlement was built on the occupied lebanese village of abel el qamh that the zionists destroyed in 1948. Kurdish jews first settled it after the natives were kicked out/killed and then indian jews took over.
